I used the water pane and got the land as close to the surface as i could whilst still exposing the water. I then used and thin object as the base. It looks pretty good. Just waiting on weather effects. My project is still early days yet mind. Just testing out what can be achieved.

Nice. This image gave me an idea. It might be possible to use a modified water shader on a regular entity and somehow mask out certain areas based on a texture map and thus create the effect that there are puddles on a surface. Just a thought. I'm not sure exactly how it could be implemented, but I might give it a try someday.

Iv tried implementing the .fx file and adding it to a static object but it had zero effect. But half of my knowledge is still abit hit and miss. I just faff about until something works. The only down side to using the water to create this effect is the range of the reflection that is cast. Like i can place stuff miles away from the playing area yet from certain angles the object is still view-able in the reflection?. So who knows.

My new screen of a warehouse building, complete with loading yard. This again is to test how effective the water layer on the floor is as to simulate a wet surface after rain.

Updated screenshot of a warehouse iv been working on. I'm still stuck just exploring ideas at the moment but i'm hoping for an urban environment. possibly industrial. The reflections on the floor just make everything tie in seamlessly.
